Leading Tamil actor Karthi's next film, the tentatively titled Karthi 26, is currently one of the most exciting projects of 2024 and is being directed by Nalan Kumarasamy of Soodhu Kavvum (2013) and Kadhalum Kadandhu Pogum (2016) fame. The upcoming film rolled into production last year and has been progressing at a steady pace without making much noise up until now. Having said that, it looks like fans are all set to get a glimpse of how the Karthi 26 journey began as per the makers' big announcement on Thursday evening, March 7.
The Karthi 26 team in their latest announcement has revealed that the much awaited pooja video of the film's team will be out on Friday, March 8, at 5 p.m. on the auspicious occasion of Maha Shivratri. There has been quite a lot of buzz surrounding the Karthi-Nalan Kumarasamy venture right from the get-go and the pooja ceremony video will no doubt kickstart the promotions of the film, which is gearing up for a grand release in cinemas this year. Karthi 26 will see Karthi paired with youth sensation Krithi Shetty, while the supporting cast will feature Karunakaran, Anandaraj, among others, with veteran actors Sathyaraj and Rajkiran reportedly cast in key roles.
